Virgin Atlantic has unveiled a new Clubhouse at Gatwick featuring a luxurious Cowshed Spa. The new Clubhouse, which is over 795 square metres in total, has re-opened after a complete refurbishment.

The Cowshed Spa and Internal Rock Garden provide a new focal point for the Clubhouse. With its porcelain slates, natural stone mosaic floors and black glass mosaic tiled walls, passengers will feel like they have entered a haven of tranquillity and luxury. Sitting alongside is a new internal rock garden, which is flooded with natural daylight and lined with vintage Cole & Son naturally themed wallpaper all providing an oasis of calm for travellers. Cowshed also offers a variety of treatments to passengers, whether it’s a gentle massage, a luxurious manicure or pedicure, all using Cowshed’s acclaimed 100% natural products, or more traditional showering facilities.

The lounge has been created by London based architectural practice FDArchitecture in collaboration with the Virgin Atlantic in-house design team.

The new Clubhouse also continues to support Virgin Atlantic’s sustainability targets. The Clubhouse uses generous expanses of FSC timber flooring to wind through and connect the magnificent facilities on offer to passengers.
